May 2024 Observations and Discussion
On this date in 1923: A very late-season winter storm dropped up to a foot of snow across Lower Michigan. Records were set for May snowfall at many places with Saginaw and Bay City having around a foot, Lansing having11.5 inches, Grand Rapids with 5.5 inches, and Detroit with 6 inches. Widespread damage was reported with trees and power lines snapping under the heavy wet snow. -

May 2024 Pacific Northwest Weather
Are you telling him nice weather fits your schedule? Not a good idea. But timing is great with a weekend and it being Mother's Day. We are doing boat on Saturday with the entire family (even my mom) and then dinner on the deck on Sunday. Looking forward to a taste of summer. I am sure there will be more rain ahead too. If it stays warm in May then June is likely to be cooler and wetter than normal. -

Agree with this sentiment. You know I’ll be out enjoying it in some part of the region in some form, even if I use this place as an outlet to grumble about double digit positive anomalies or airport temps wildly exceeding guidance. It did seem like enough of a purely subjective statement that it called for a little prodding, though. -

84F with brilliant sunshine and green everywhere without any dry vegetation is nice. If we keep it limited to the weekend it'll be a welcome, brief change of pace with great timing to enjoy on my days off. So long as we crash back to earth next week instead of going for round two.- 2
